1. FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to Phenylene Compounds, compositionscomprising an effective amount of a Phenylene Compound and methods fortreating or preventing a Condition such as pain comprising administeringto an animal in need thereof an effective amount of a PhenyleneCompound.

2. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Pain is the most common symptom for which patients seek medical adviceand treatment. Pain can be acute or chronic. While acute pain is usuallyself-limited, chronic pain persists for 3 months or longer and can leadto significant changes in a patient's personality, lifestyle, functionalability and overall quality of life (K. M. Foley, Pain, in CecilTextbook of Medicine 100-107 (J. C. Bennett and F. Plum eds., 20th ed.1996)).

Moreover, chronic pain can be classified as either nociceptive orneuropathic. Nociceptive pain includes tissue injury-induced pain andinflammatory pain such as that associated with arthritis. Neuropathicpain is caused by damage to the peripheral or central nervous system andis maintained by aberrant somatosensory processing. There is a largebody of evidence relating activity at both Group I mGluRs (mGluR1 andmGluR5) (M. E. Fundytus, CNS Drugs 15:29-58 (2001)) and vanilloidreceptors (VR1) (V. Di Marzo et al., Current Opinion in Neurobiology12:372-379 (2002)) to pain processing. Inhibiting mGluR1 or mGluR5reduces pain, as shown by in vivo treatment with antibodies selectivefor either mGluR1 or mGluR5, where neuropathic pain in rats wasattenuated (M. E. Fundytus et al., NeuroReport 9:731-735 (1998)). It hasalso been shown that antisense oligonucleotide knockdown of mGluR1alleviates both neuropathic and inflammatory pain (M. E. Fundytus etal., British Journal of Pharmacology 132:354-367 (2001); M. E. Fundytuset al., Pharmacology, Biochemistry & Behavior 73:401-410 (2002)). Smallmolecule antagonists for mGluR5-attenuated pain in in vivo animal modelsare disclosed in, e.g., K. Walker et al., Neuropharmacology 40:1-9(2000) and A. Dogrul et al., Neuroscience Letters 292:115-118 (2000)).

Nociceptive pain has been traditionally managed by administeringnon-opioid analgesics, such as acetylsalicylic acid, choline magnesiumtrisalicylate, acetaminophen, ibuprofen, fenoprofen, diflusinal, andnaproxen; or opioid analgesics, including morphine, hydromorphone,methadone, levorphanol, fentanyl, oxycodone, and oxymorphone. Id. Inaddition to the above-listed treatments, neuropathic pain, which can bedifficult to treat, has also been treated with anti-epileptics (e.g.,gabapentin, carbamazepine, valproic acid, topiramate, phenyloin), NMDAantagonists (e.g., ketamine, dextromethorphan), topical lidocaine (forpost-herpetic neuralgia), and tricyclic antidepressants (e.g.,fluoxetine, sertraline and amitriptyline).

Urinary incontinence (“UI”) is uncontrollable urination, generallycaused by bladder-detrusor-muscle instability. UI affects people of allages and levels of physical health, both in health care settings and inthe community at large. Physiologic bladder contraction results in largepart from acetylcholine-induced stimulation of post-ganglionicmuscarinic-receptor sites on bladder smooth muscle. Treatments for UIinclude the administration of drugs having bladder-relaxant properties,which help to control bladder-detrusor-muscle overactivity. For example,anticholinergics such as propantheline bromide and glycopyrrolate, andcombinations of smooth-muscle relaxants such as a combination of racemicoxybutynin and dicyclomine or an anticholinergic, have been used totreat UI (See, e.g., A. J. Wein, Urol. Clin. N. Am. 22:557-577 (1995);Levin et al., J. Urol. 128:396-398 (1982); Cooke et al., S. Afr. Med. J.63:3 (1983); R. K. Mirakhur et al., Anaesthesia 38:1195-1204 (1983)).These drugs are not effective, however, in all patients havinguninhibited bladder contractions. Administration of anticholinergicmedications represent the mainstay of this type of treatment.

None of the existing commercial drug treatments for UI has achievedcomplete success in all classes of UI patients, nor has treatmentoccurred without significant adverse side effects. For example,drowsiness, dry mouth, constipation, blurred vision, headaches,tachycardia, and cardiac arrhythmia, which are related to theanticholinergic activity of traditional anti-UI drugs, can occurfrequently and adversely affect patient compliance. Yet despite theprevalence of unwanted anticholinergic effects in many patients,anticholinergic drugs are currently prescribed for patients having UI.The Merck Manual of Medical Information 631-634 (R. Berkow ed., 1997).

About 1 in 10 people develop an ulcer. Ulcers develop as a result of animbalance between acid-secretory factors, also known as “aggressivefactors,” such as stomach acid, pepsin, and Helicobacter pyloriinfection, and local mucosal-protective factors, such as secretion ofbicarbonate, mucus, and prostaglandins.

Treatment of ulcers typically involves reducing or inhibiting theaggressive factors. For example, antacids such as aluminum hydroxide,magnesium hydroxide, sodium bicarbonate, and calcium bicarbonate can beused to neutralize stomach acids. Antacids, however, can causealkalosis, leading to nausea, headache, and weakness. Antacids can alsointerfere with the absorption of other drugs into the blood stream andcause diarrhea.

H₂ antagonists, such as cimetidine, ranitidine, famotidine, andnizatidine, are also used to treat ulcers. H₂ antagonists promote ulcerhealing by reducing gastric acid and digestive-enzyme secretion elicitedby histamine and other H₂ agonists in the stomach and duodenum. H₂antagonists, however, can cause breast enlargement and impotence in men,mental changes (especially in the elderly), headache, dizziness, nausea,myalgia, diarrhea, rash, and fever.

H⁺, K⁺-ATPase inhibitors such as omeprazole and lansoprazole are alsoused to treat ulcers. H⁺, K⁺-ATPase inhibitors inhibit the production ofenzymes used by the stomach to secrete acid. Side effects associatedwith H⁺, K⁺-ATPase inhibitors include nausea, diarrhea, abdominal colic,headache, dizziness, somnolence, skin rashes, and transient elevationsof plasma activities of aminotransferases.

Sucraflate is also used to treat ulcers. Sucraflate adheres toepithelial cells and is believed to form a protective coating at thebase of an ulcer to promote healing. Sucraflate, however, can causeconstipation, dry mouth, and interfere with the absorption of otherdrugs.

Antibiotics are used when Helicobacter pylori is the underlying cause ofthe ulcer. Often antibiotic therapy is coupled with the administrationof bismuth compounds such as bismuth subsalicylate and colloidal bismuthcitrate. The bismuth compounds are believed to enhance secretion ofmucous and HCO₃ ⁻, inhibit pepsin activity, and act as an antibacterialagainst H. pylori. Ingestion of bismuth compounds, however, can lead toelevated plasma concentrations of Bi⁺³ and can interfere with theabsorption of other drugs.

Prostaglandin analogues, such as misoprostal, inhibit secretion of acidand stimulate the secretion of mucous and bicarbonate and are also usedto treat ulcers, especially ulcers in patients who require nonsteroidalanti-inflammatory drugs. Effective oral doses of prostaglandinanalogues, however, can cause diarrhea and abdominal cramping. Inaddition, some prostaglandin analogues are abortifacients.

Carbenoxolone, a mineral corticoid, can also be used to treat ulcers.Carbenoxolone appears to alter the composition and quantity of mucous,thereby enhancing the mucosal barrier. Carbenoxolone, however, can leadto Na⁺ and fluid retention, hypertension, hypokalemia, and impairedglucose tolerance.

Muscarinic cholinergic antagonists such as pirenzapine and telenzapinecan also be used to reduce acid secretion and treat ulcers. Side effectsof muscarinic cholinergic antagonists include dry mouth, blurred vision,and constipation.

Inflammatory-bowel disease (“IBD”) is a chronic disorder in which thebowel becomes inflamed, often causing recurring abdominal cramps anddiarrhea. The two types of IBD are Crohn's disease and ulcerativecolitis.

Crohn's disease, which can include regional enteritis, granulomatousileitis, and ileocolitis, is a chronic inflammation of the intestinalwall. Crohn's disease occurs equally in both sexes and is more common inJews of eastern-European ancestry. Most cases of Crohn's disease beginbefore age 30 and the majority start between the ages of 14 and 24. Thedisease typically affects the full thickness of the intestinal wall.Generally the disease affects the lowest portion of the small intestine(ileum) and the large intestine, but can occur in any part of thedigestive tract.

Early symptoms of Crohn's disease are chronic diarrhea, crampy abdominalpain, fever, loss of appetite, and weight loss. Complications associatedwith Crohn's disease include the development of intestinal obstructions,abnormal connecting channels (fistulas), and abscesses. The risk ofcancer of the large intestine is increased in people who have Crohn'sdisease. Often Crohn's disease is associated with other disorders suchas gallstones, inadequate absorption of nutrients, amyloidosis,arthritis, episcleritis, aphthous stomatitis, erythema nodosum, pyodermagangrenosum, ankylosing spondylitis, sacroilitis, uveitis, and primarysclerosing cholangitis. There is no known cure for Crohn's disease.

Cramps and diarrhea, side effects associated with Crohn's disease, canbe relieved by anticholinergic drugs, diphenoxylate, loperamide,deodorized opium tincture, or codeine. Generally, the drug is takenorally before a meal.

Broad-spectrum antibiotics are often administered to treat the symptomsof Crohn's disease. The antibiotic metronidazole is often administeredwhen the disease affects the large intestine or causes abscesses andfistulas around the anus. Long-term use of metronidazole, however, candamage nerves, resulting in pins-and-needles sensations in the arms andlegs. Sulfasalazine and chemically related drugs can suppress mildinflammation, especially in the large intestine. These drugs, however,are less effective in sudden, severe flare-ups. Corticosteroids, such asprednisone, reduce fever and diarrhea and relieve abdominal pain andtenderness. Long-term corticosteroid therapy, however, invariablyresults in serious side effects such as high blood-sugar levels,increased risk of infection, osteoporosis, water retention, andfragility of the skin. Drugs such as azathioprine and mercaptopurine cancompromise the immune system and are often effective for Crohn's diseasein patients that do not respond to other drugs. These drugs, however,usually need 3 to 6 months before they produce benefits and can causeserious side effects such as allergy, pancreatitis, and lowwhite-blood-cell count.

When Crohn's disease causes the intestine to be obstructed or whenabscesses or fistulas do not heal, surgery can be necessary to removediseased sections of the intestine. Surgery, however, does not cure thedisease, and inflammation tends to recur where the intestine isrejoined. In almost half of the cases a second operation is needed. TheMerck Manual of Medical Information 528-530 (R. Berkow ed., 1997).

Ulcerative colitis is a chronic disease in which the large intestinebecomes inflamed and ulcerated, leading to episodes of bloody diarrhea,abdominal cramps, and fever. Ulcerative colitis usually begins betweenages 15 and 30, however, a small group of people have their first attackbetween ages 50 and 70. Unlike Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis neveraffects the small intestine and does not affect the full thickness ofthe intestine. The disease usually begins in the rectum and the sigmoidcolon and eventually spreads partially or completely throughout thelarge intestine. The cause of ulcerative colitis is unknown. Treatmentof ulcerative colitis is directed to controlling inflammation, reducingsymptoms, and replacing lost fluids and nutrients.

Irritable-bowel syndrome (“IBS”) is a disorder of motility of the entiregastrointestinal tract, causing abdominal pain, constipation, and/ordiarrhea. IBS affects three-times more women than men.

There are two major types of IBS. The first type, spastic-colon type, iscommonly triggered by eating, and usually produces periodic constipationand diarrhea with pain. Mucous often appears in the stool. The pain cancome in bouts of continuous dull aching pain or cramps, usually in thelower abdomen. The person suffering from spastic-colon type IBS can alsoexperience bloating, gas, nausea, headache, fatigue, depression,anxiety, and difficulty concentrating. The second type of IBS usuallyproduces painless diarrhea or constipation. The diarrhea can beginsuddenly and with extreme urgency. Often the diarrhea occurs soon aftera meal and can sometimes occur immediately upon awakening.

Treatment of IBS typically involves modification of an IBS-patient'sdiet. Often it is recommended that an IBS patient avoid beans, cabbage,sorbitol, and fructose. A low-fat, high-fiber diet can also help someIBS patients. Regular physical activity can also help keep thegastrointestinal tract functioning properly. Drugs such as propanthelinethat slow the function of the gastrointestinal tract are generally noteffective for treating IBS. Antidiarrheal drugs, such as diphenoxylateand loperamide, help with diarrhea. The Merck Manual of MedicalInformation 525-526 (R. Berkow ed., 1997).

Certain pharmaceutical agents have been administered for treatingaddiction. U.S. Pat. No. 5,556,838 to Mayer et al. discloses the use ofnontoxic NMDA-blocking agents co-administered with an addictivesubstance to prevent the development of tolerance or withdrawalsymptoms. U.S. Pat. No. 5,574,052 to Rose et al. disclosesco-administration of an addictive substance with an antagonist topartially block the pharmacological effects of the addictive substance.U.S. Pat. No. 5,075,341 to Mendelson et al. discloses the use of a mixedopiate agonist/antagonist to treat cocaine and opiate addiction. U.S.Pat. No. 5,232,934 to Downs discloses administration of3-phenoxypyridine to treat addiction. U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,039,680 and5,198,459 to Imperato et al. disclose using a serotonin antagonist totreat chemical addiction. U.S. Pat. No. 5,556,837 to Nestler et. al.discloses infusing BDNF or NT-4 growth factors to inhibit or reverseneurological adaptive changes that correlate with behavioral changes inan addicted individual. U.S. Pat. No. 5,762,925 to Sagan disclosesimplanting encapsulated adrenal medullary cells into an animal's centralnervous system to inhibit the development of opioid intolerance. U.S.Pat. No. 6,204,284 to Beer et al. discloses racemic(±)-1-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane for use in theprevention or relief of a withdrawal syndrome resulting from addictionto drugs and for the treatment of chemical dependencies.

Without treatment, Parkinson's disease progresses to a rigid akineticstate in which patients are incapable of caring for themselves. Deathfrequently results from complications of immobility, includingaspiration pneumonia or pulmonary embolism. Drugs commonly used for thetreatment of Parkinson's disease include carbidopa/levodopa, pergolide,bromocriptine, selegiline, amantadine, and trihexyphenidylhydrochloride. There remains, however, a need for drugs useful for thetreatment of Parkinson's disease and having an improved therapeuticprofile.

Anxiety is a fear, apprehension or dread of impending danger oftenaccompanied by restlessness, tension, tachycardia and dyspnea.Currently, benzodiazepines are the most commonly used anti-anxietyagents for generalized anxiety disorder. Benzodiazepines, however, carrythe risk of producing impairment of cognition and skilled motorfunctions, particularly in the elderly, which can result in confusion,delerium, and falls with fractures. Sedatives are also commonlyprescribed for treating anxiety. The azapirones, such as buspirone, arealso used to treat moderate anxiety. The azapirones, however, are lessuseful for treating severe anxiety accompanied with panic attacks.

Epilepsy is a disorder characterized by the tendency to have recurringseizures. Examples of drugs for treating a seizure and epilepsy includecarbamazepine, ethosuximide, gabapentin, lamotrigine, phenobarbital,phenyloin, primidone, valproic acid, trimethadione, benzodiazepines,γ-vinyl GABA, acetazolamide, and felbamate. Anti-seizure drugs, however,can have side effects such as drowsiness; hyperactivity; hallucinations;inability to concentrate; central and peripheral nervous systemtoxicity, such as nystagmus, ataxia, diplopia, and vertigo; gingivalhyperplasia; gastrointestinal disturbances such as nausea, vomiting,epigastric pain, and anorexia; endocrine effects such as inhibition ofantidiuretic hormone, hyperglycemia, glycosuria, osteomalacia; andhypersensitivity such as scarlatiniform rash, morbilliform rash,Stevens-Johnson syndrome, systemic lupus erythematosus, and hepaticnecrosis; and hematological reactions such as red-cell aplasia,agranulocytosis, thrombocytopenia, aplastic anemia, and megaloblasticanemia. The Merck Manual of Medical Information 345-350 (R. Berkow ed.,1997).

Symptoms of strokes vary depending on what part of the brain isaffected. Symptoms include loss or abnormal sensations in an arm or legor one side of the body, weakness or paralysis of an arm or leg or oneside of the body, partial loss of vision or hearing, double vision,dizziness, slurred speech, difficulty in thinking of the appropriateword or saying it, inability to recognize parts of the body, unusualmovements, loss of bladder control, imbalance, and falling, andfainting. The symptoms can be permanent and can be associated with comaor stupor. Examples of drugs for treating strokes include anticoagulantssuch as heparin, drugs that break up clots such as streptokinase ortissue plasminogen activator, and drugs that reduce swelling such asmannitol or corticosteroids. The Merck Manual of Medical Information352-355 (R. Berkow ed., 1997).

Pruritus is an unpleasant sensation that prompts scratching.Conventionally, pruritus is treated by phototherapy with ultraviolet Bor PUVA or with therapeutic agents such as naltrexone, nalmefene,danazol, tricyclics, and antidepressants.

Selective antagonists of the metabotropic glutamate receptor 5(“mGluR5”) have been shown to exert analgesic activity in in vivo animalmodels (K. Walker et al., Neuropharmacology 40:1-9 (2000) and A. Dogrulet al., Neuroscience Letters, 292(2):115-118 (2000)).

Selective antagonists of the mGluR5 receptor have also been shown toexert anxiolytic and anti-depressant activity in in vivo animal models(E. Tatarczynska et al., Br. J. Pharmacol. 132(7):1423-1430 (2001) andP. J. M. Will et al., Trends in Pharmacological Sciences 22(7):331-37(2001)).

Methods of administration include, but are not limited to, intradermal,intramuscular, intraperitoneal, intravenous, subcutaneous, intranasal,epidural, oral, sublingual, intracerebral, intravaginal, transdermal,rectal, by inhalation, or topical, particularly to the ears, nose, eyes,or skin. The mode of administration is left to the discretion of thepractitioner. In most instances, administration will result in therelease of the Phenylene Compounds into the bloodstream.

In specific embodiments, it can be desirable to administer the PhenyleneCompounds locally. This can be achieved, for example, and not by way oflimitation, by local infusion during surgery, topical application, e.g.,in conjunction with a wound dressing after surgery, by injection, bymeans of a catheter, by means of a suppository or enema, or by means ofan implant, said implant being of a porous, non-porous, or gelatinousmaterial, including membranes, such as sialastic membranes, or fibers.

In certain embodiments, it can be desirable to introduce the PhenyleneCompounds into the central nervous system or gastrointestinal tract byany suitable route, including intraventricular, intrathecal, andepidural injection, and enema. Intraventricular injection can befacilitated by an intraventricular catheter, for example, attached to areservoir, such as an Ommaya reservoir.

Pulmonary administration can also be employed, e.g., by use of aninhaler or nebulizer, and formulation with an aerosolizing agent, or viaperfusion in a fluorocarbon or synthetic pulmonary surfactant. Incertain embodiments, the Phenylene Compounds can be formulated as asuppository, with traditional binders and excipients such astriglycerides.

In another embodiment, the Phenylene Compounds can be delivered in avesicle, in particular a liposome (see Langer, Science 249:1527-1533(1990); and Treat et al., Liposomes in the Therapy of Infectious Diseaseand Cancer 317-327 and 353-365 (1989)).

In yet another embodiment, the Phenylene Compounds can be delivered in acontrolled-release system or sustained-release system (see, e.g.,Goodson, in Medical Applications of Controlled Release, supra, vol. 2,pp. 115-138 (1984)). Other controlled- or sustained-release systemsdiscussed in the review by Langer, Science 249:1527-1533 (1990) can beused. In one embodiment, a pump can be used (Langer, Science249:1527-1533 (1990); Sefton, CRC Crit. Ref. Biomed. Eng. 14:201 (1987);Buchwald et al., Surgery 88:507 (1980); and Saudek et al., N. Engl. J.Med. 321:574 (1989)). In another embodiment, polymeric materials can beused (see Medical Applications of Controlled Release (Langer and Wiseeds., 1974); Controlled Drug Bioavailability, Drug Product Design andPerformance (Smolen and Ball eds., 1984); Ranger and Peppas, J.Macromol. Sci. Rev. Macromol. Chem. 23:61 (1983); Levy et al., Science228:190 (1985); During et al., Ann. Neurol. 25:351 (1989); and Howard etal., J. Neurosurg. 71:105 (1989)). In yet another embodiment, acontrolled- or sustained-release system can be placed in proximity of atarget of the Phenylene Compounds, e.g., the spinal column, brain, orgastrointestinal tract, thus requiring only a fraction of the systemicdose.

The present compositions can optionally comprise a suitable amount of apharmaceutically acceptable excipient so as to provide the form forproper administration to the animal. Such a pharmaceutical excipient canbe a liquid, such as water or an oil, including those of petroleum,animal, vegetable, or synthetic origin, such as peanut oil, soybean oil,mineral oil, sesame oil and the like. The pharmaceutical excipient canbe saline, gum acacia, gelatin, starch paste, talc, keratin, colloidalsilica, urea and the like. In addition, auxiliary, stabilizing,thickening, lubricating, and coloring agents can be used. In oneembodiment, the pharmaceutically acceptable excipient is sterile whenadministered to an animal. Water is a particularly useful excipient whenthe Phenylene Compound is administered intravenously. Saline solutionsand aqueous dextrose and glycerol solutions can also be employed asliquid excipients, particularly for injectable solutions. Suitablepharmaceutical excipients also include starch, glucose, lactose,sucrose, gelatin, malt, rice, flour, chalk, silica gel, sodium stearate,glycerol monostearate, talc, sodium chloride, dried skim milk, glycerol,propylene, glycol, water, ethanol and the like. The presentcompositions, if desired, can also contain minor amounts of wetting oremulsifying agents, or pH buffering agents.

The present compositions can take the form of solutions, suspensions,emulsions, tablets, pills, pellets, capsules, capsules containingliquids, powders, sustained-release formulations, suppositories,emulsions, aerosols, sprays, suspensions, or any other form suitable foruse. In one embodiment, the composition is in the form of a capsule(see, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 5,698,155). Other examples of suitablepharmaceutical excipients are described in Remington's PharmaceuticalSciences 1447-1676 (Alfonso R. Gennaro ed., 19th ed. 1995), incorporatedherein by reference.

In one embodiment, the Phenylene Compounds are formulated in accordancewith routine procedures as a composition adapted for oral administrationto human beings. Compositions for oral delivery can be in the form oftablets, lozenges, aqueous or oily suspensions, granules, powders,emulsions, capsules, syrups, or elixirs, for example. Orallyadministered compositions can contain one or more agents, for example,sweetening agents such as fructose, aspartame or saccharin; flavoringagents such as peppermint, oil of wintergreen, or cherry; coloringagents; and preserving agents, to provide a pharmaceutically palatablepreparation. Moreover, where in tablet or pill form, the compositionscan be coated to delay disintegration and absorption in thegastrointestinal tract thereby providing a sustained action over anextended period of time. Selectively permeable membranes surrounding anosmotically active driving compound are also suitable for orallyadministered compositions. In these latter platforms, fluid from theenvironment surrounding the capsule is imbibed by the driving compound,which swells to displace the agent or agent composition through anaperture. These delivery platforms can provide an essentially zero orderdelivery profile as opposed to the spiked profiles of immediate releaseformulations. A time-delay material such as glycerol monostearate orglycerol stearate can also be used. Oral compositions can includestandard excipients such as mannitol, lactose, starch, magnesiumstearate, sodium saccharin, cellulose, and magnesium carbonate. In oneembodiment, the excipients are of pharmaceutical grade.

In another embodiment, the Phenylene Compounds can be formulated forintravenous administration. Typically, compositions for intravenousadministration comprise sterile isotonic aqueous buffer. Wherenecessary, the compositions can also include a solubilizing agent.Compositions for intravenous administration can optionally include alocal anesthetic such as lidocaine to lessen pain at the site of theinjection. Generally, the ingredients are supplied either separately ormixed together in unit dosage form, for example, as a dry lyophilizedpowder or water free concentrate in a hermetically sealed container suchas an ampule or sachette indicating the quantity of active agent. Wherethe Phenylene Compounds are to be administered by infusion, they can bedispensed, for example, with an infusion bottle containing sterilepharmaceutical grade water or saline. Where the Phenylene Compounds areadministered by injection, an ampule of sterile water for injection orsaline can be provided so that the ingredients can be mixed prior toadministration.

The Phenylene Compounds can be administered by controlled-release orsustained-release means or by delivery devices that are known to thosein the art. Examples include, but are not limited to, those described inU.S. Pat. Nos. 3,845,770; 3,916,899; 3,536,809; 3,598,123; 4,008,719;5,674,533; 5,059,595; 5,591,767; 5,120,548; 5,073,543; 5,639,476;5,354,556; and 5,733,566, each of which is incorporated herein byreference. Such dosage forms can be used to provide controlled- orsustained-release of one or more active ingredients using, for example,hydropropylmethyl cellulose, other polymer matrices, gels, permeablemembranes, osmotic systems, multilayer coatings, microparticles,liposomes, microspheres, or a combination thereof to provide the desiredrelease profile in varying proportions. Suitable controlled- orsustained-release formulations known to those in the art, includingthose described herein, can be readily selected for use with the activeingredients of the invention. The invention thus encompasses single unitdosage forms suitable for oral administration such as, but not limitedto, tablets, capsules, gelcaps, and caplets that are adapted forcontrolled- or sustained-release.

Controlled- or sustained-release pharmaceutical compositions can have acommon goal of improving drug therapy over that achieved by theirnon-controlled or non-sustained-release counterparts. In one embodiment,a controlled- or sustained-release composition comprises a minimalamount of a Phenylene Compound to treat or prevent the Condition or asymptom thereof in a minimum amount of time. Advantages of controlled-or sustained-release compositions include extended activity of the drug,reduced dosage frequency, and increased patient compliance. In addition,controlled- or sustained-release compositions can favorably affect thetime of onset of action or other characteristics, such as blood levelsof the Phenylene Compound, and can thus reduce the occurrence of adverseside effects.

Controlled- or sustained-release compositions can initially release anamount of a Phenylene Compound that promptly produces the desiredtherapeutic or prophylactic effect, and gradually and continuallyrelease other amounts of the Phenylene Compound to maintain this levelof therapeutic or prophylactic effect over an extended period of time.To maintain a constant level of the Phenylene Compound in the body, thePhenylene Compound can be released from the dosage form at a rate thatwill replace the amount of Phenylene Compound being metabolized andexcreted from the body. Controlled- or sustained-release of an activeingredient can be stimulated by various conditions, including but notlimited to, changes in pH, changes in temperature, concentration oravailability of enzymes, concentration or availability of water, orother physiological conditions or compounds.

The amount of the Phenylene Compound that is effective for the treatmentor prevention of a condition can be determined by standard clinicaltechniques. In addition, in vitro or in vivo assays can optionally beemployed to help identify optimal dosage ranges. The precise dose to beemployed will also depend on the route of administration, and theseriousness of the Condition and can be decided according to thejudgment of a practitioner and/or each animal's circumstances. Suitableeffective dosage amounts, however, range from about 0.01 mg/kg of bodyweight to about 2500 mg/kg of body weight, although they are typicallyabout 100 mg/kg of body weight or less. In one embodiment, the effectivedosage amount ranges from about 0.01 mg/kg of body weight to about 100mg/kg of body weight of a Phenylene Compound, in another embodiment,about 0.02 mg/kg of body weight to about 50 mg/kg of body weight, and inanother embodiment, about 0.025 mg/kg of body weight to about 20 mg/kgof body weight. In one embodiment, an effective dosage amount isadministered about every 24 h until the Condition is abated. In anotherembodiment, an effective dosage amount is administered about every 12 huntil the Condition is abated. In another embodiment, an effectivedosage amount is administered about every 8 h until the Condition isabated. In another embodiment, an effective dosage amount isadministered about every 6 h until the Condition is abated. In anotherembodiment, an effective dosage amount is administered about every 4 huntil the Condition is abated. The effective dosage amounts describedherein refer to total amounts administered; that is, if more than onePhenylene Compound is administered, the effective dosage amountscorrespond to the total amount administered.

Where a cell capable of expressing VR1, mGluR5, or mGluR1 is contactedwith a Phenylene Compound in vitro, the amount effective for inhibitingthe VR1, mGluR5, or mGluR1 receptor function in a cell will typicallyrange from about 0.01 μg/L to about 5 mg/L, in one embodiment, fromabout 0.01 μg/L to about 2.5 mg/L, in another embodiment, from about0.01 μg/L to about 0.5 mg/L, and in another embodiment, from about 0.01μg/L to about 0.25 mg/L of a solution or suspension of apharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient. In one embodiment, thevolume of solution or suspension comprising the Phenylene Compound isfrom about 0.01 μL to about 1 mL. In another embodiment, the volume ofsolution or suspension is about 200 μL.

Where a cell capable of expressing VR1, mGluR5, or mGluR1 is contactedwith a Phenylene Compound in vivo, the amount effective for inhibitingthe receptor function in a cell will typically range from about 0.01mg/kg of body weight to about 2500 mg/kg of body weight, although ittypically ranges from about 100 mg/kg of body weight or less. In oneembodiment, the effective dosage amount ranges from about 0.01 mg/kg ofbody weight to about 100 mg/kg of body weight of a Phenylene Compound,in another embodiment, about 0.02 mg/kg of body weight to about 50 mg/kgof body weight, and in another embodiment, about 0.025 mg/kg of bodyweight to about 20 mg/kg of body weight. In one embodiment, an effectivedosage amount is administered about every 24 h. In another embodiment,an effective dosage amount is administered about every 12. In anotherembodiment, an effective dosage amount is administered about every 8. Inanother embodiment, an effective dosage amount is administered aboutevery 6 h. In another embodiment, an effective dosage amount isadministered about every 4 h.

The Phenylene Compounds can be assayed in vitro or in vivo for thedesired therapeutic or prophylactic activity prior to use in humans.Animal model systems can be used to demonstrate safety and efficacy.

The present methods for treating or preventing a Condition in an animalin need thereof can further comprise administering to the animal beingadministered a Phenylene Compound another therapeutic agent. In oneembodiment, the other therapeutic agent is administered in an effectiveamount.

The present methods for inhibiting VR1 function in a cell capable ofexpressing VR1 can further comprise contacting the cell with aneffective amount of another therapeutic agent that may or may notinhibit VR1.

The present methods for inhibiting mGluR5 function in a cell capable ofexpressing mGluR5 can further comprise contacting the cell with aneffective amount of another therapeutic agent that may or may notinhibit mGluR5.

The present methods for inhibiting mGluR1 function in a cell capable ofexpressing mGluR1 can further comprise contacting the cell with aneffective amount of another therapeutic agent that may or may notinhibit mGluR1.

Effective amounts of the other therapeutic agents are known to thoseskilled in the art. However, it is well within the skilled artisan'spurview to determine the other therapeutic agent's optimaleffective-amount range. In one embodiment of the invention, whereanother therapeutic agent is administered to an animal, the minimaleffective amount of the Phenylene Compound is less than its minimaleffective amount would be where the other therapeutic agent is notadministered. In this embodiment, without being bound by theory, it isbelieved that the Phenylene Compounds and the other therapeutic agentact synergistically to treat or prevent a Condition.

5.6 Example 6 Binding of Phenylene Compounds to mGluR5

The following assay can be used to demonstrate that Phenylene Compoundsbind to and modulate the activity of mGluR5.

Cell Cultures: Primary glial cultures are prepared from cortices ofSprague-Dawley 18 days old embryos. The cortices are dissected and thendissociated by trituration. The resulting cell homogenate is plated ontopoly-D-lysine precoated T175 flasks (BIOCOAT, commercially availablefrom Becton Dickinson and Company Inc. of Franklin Lakes, N.J.) inDulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (“DMEM,” pH 7.4), buffered with 25 mMHEPES, and supplemented with 15% fetal calf serum (“FCS,” commerciallyavailable from Hyclone Laboratories Inc. of Omaha, Nebr.), and incubatedat 37° C. and 5% CO₂. After 24 hours, FCS supplementation is reduced to10%. On day six, oligodendrocytes and microglia are removed by stronglytapping the sides of the flasks. One day following this purificationstep, secondary astrocyte cultures are established by subplating onto 96poly-D-lysine precoated T175 flasks (BIOCOAT) at a density of 65,000cells/well in DMEM and 10% FCS. After 24 hours, the astrocytes arewashed with serum free medium and then cultured in DMEM, withoutglutamate, supplemented with 0.5% FCS, 20 mM HEPES, 10 ng/mL epidermalgrowth factor (“EGF”), 1 mM sodium pyruvate, and 1×penicillin/streptomycin at pH 7.5 for 3 to 5 days at 37° C. and 5% CO₂.The procedure allows the expression of the mGluR5 receptor byastrocytes, as demonstrated by S. Miller et al., J. Neuroscience15(9):6103-6109 (1995).

Assay Protocol: After 3-5 days incubation with EGF, the astrocytes arewashed with 127 mM NaCl, 5 mM KCl, 2 mM MgCl₂, 700 mM NaH₂PO₄, 2 mMCaCl₂, 5 mM NaHCO₃, 8 mM HEPES, 10 mM Glucose at pH 7.4 (“Assay Buffer”)and loaded with the dye Fluo-4 (commercially available from MolecularProbes Inc. of Eugene, Oreg.) using 0.1 mL of Assay Buffer containingFluo-4 (3 mM final). After 90 minutes of dye loading, the cells are thenwashed twice with 0.2 mL Assay Buffer and resuspended in 0.1 mL of AssayBuffer. The plates containing the astrocytes are then transferred to aFluorometric Imaging Plate reader (“FLIPR,” commercially available fromMolecular Devices Corporation of Sunnyvale, Calif.) for the assessmentof calcium mobilization flux in the presence of glutamate and in thepresence or absence of antagonist. After monitoring fluorescence for 15seconds to establish a baseline, DMSO solutions containing variousconcentrations of a Phenylene Compound diluted in Assay Buffer (0.05 mLof 4× dilutions for competition curves) are added to the cell plate andfluorescence is monitored for 2 minutes. 0.05 mL of a 4× glutamatesolution (agonist) is then added to each well to provide a finalglutamate concentration in each well of 10 mM. Plate fluorescence isthen monitored for an additional 60 seconds after agonist addition. Thefinal DMSO concentration in the assay is 1.0%. In each experiment,fluorescence is monitored as a function of time and the data analyzedusing Microsoft Excel and GraphPad Prism. Dose-response curves are fitusing a non-linear regression to determine the IC₅₀ value. In eachexperiment, each data point is determined two times.

5.7 Example 7 In Vivo Assays for Prevention or Treatment of Pain

Test Animals: Each experiment uses rats weighing between 200-260 g atthe start of the experiment. The rats are group-housed and have freeaccess to food and water at all times, except prior to oraladministration of a Phenylene Compound when food is removed for 16 hoursbefore dosing. A control group acts as a comparison to rats treated witha Phenylene Compound. The control group is administered the carrier forthe Phenylene Compound. The volume of carrier administered to thecontrol group is the same as the volume of carrier and PhenyleneCompound administered to the test group.

Acute Pain: To assess the actions of the Phenylene Compounds for thetreatment or prevention of acute pain, the rat tail flick test can beused. Rats are gently restrained by hand and the tail exposed to afocused beam of radiant heat at a point 5 cm from the tip using a tailflick unit (Model 7360, commercially available from Ugo Basile ofItaly). Tail flick latencies are defined as the interval between theonset of the thermal stimulus and the flick of the tail. Animals notresponding within 20 seconds are removed from the tail flick unit andassigned a withdrawal latency of 20 seconds. Tail flick latencies aremeasured immediately before (pre-treatment) and 1, 3, and 5 hoursfollowing administration of a Phenylene Compound. Data are expressed astail flick latency(s) and the percentage of the maximal possible effect(% MPE), i.e., 20 seconds, is calculated as follows:

${\% \mspace{14mu} M\; P\; E} = {\frac{\left\lbrack {\left( {{post}\mspace{14mu} {administration}\mspace{14mu} {latency}} \right) - \left( {{pre}\text{-}{administration}\mspace{14mu} {latency}} \right)} \right\rbrack}{\left( {20\mspace{14mu} s\mspace{14mu} {pre}\text{-}{administration}\mspace{14mu} {latency}} \right)} \times 100}$

The rat tail flick test is described in F. E. D'Amour et al., “A Methodfor Determining Loss of Pain Sensation,” J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther.72:74-79 (1941).

Acute pain can also be assessed by measuring the animal's response tonoxious mechanical stimuli by determining the paw withdrawal threshold(“PWT”), as described below.

Inflammatory Pain: To assess the actions of the Phenylene Compounds forthe treatment or prevention of inflammatory pain, the Freund's completeadjuvant (“FCA”) model of inflammatory pain is used. FCA-inducedinflammation of the rat hind paw is associated with the development ofpersistent inflammatory mechanical hyperalgesia and provides reliableprediction of the anti-hyperalgesic action of clinically usefulanalgesic drugs (L. Bartho et al., “Involvement of Capsaicin-sensitiveNeurones in Hyperalgesia and Enhanced Opioid Antinociception inInflammation,” Naunyn-Schmiedeberg's Archives of Pharmacol. 342:666-670(1990)). The left hind paw of each animal is administered a 50 μLintraplantar injection of 50% FCA. 24 hour post injection, the animal isassessed for response to noxious mechanical stimuli by determining thePWT, as described below. Rats are then administered a single injectionof 1, 3, 10 or 30 mg/kg of either a Phenylene Compound; 30 mg/kg of acontrol selected from Celebrex, indomethacin or naproxen; or carrier.Responses to noxious mechanical stimuli are then determined 1, 3, 5 and24 hours post administration. Percentage reversal of hyperalgesia foreach animal is defined as:

${\% \mspace{14mu} {Reversal}} = {\frac{\left\lbrack {\left( {{post}\mspace{14mu} {administration}\mspace{14mu} P\; W\; T} \right) - \left( {{pre}\text{-}{administration}\mspace{14mu} P\; W\; T} \right)} \right\rbrack}{\left\lbrack {\left( {{baseline}\mspace{14mu} P\; W\; T} \right) - \left( {{pre}\text{-}{administration}\mspace{14mu} P\; W\; T} \right)} \right\rbrack} \times 100}$

Neuropathic Pain: To assess the actions of the Phenylene Compounds forthe treatment or prevention of neuropathic pain, either the Seltzermodel or the Chung model can be used.

In the Seltzer model, the partial sciatic nerve ligation model ofneuropathic pain is used to produce neuropathic hyperalgesia in rats (Z.Seltzer et al., “A Novel Behavioral Model of Neuropathic Pain DisordersProduced in Rats by Partial Sciatic Nerve Injury,” Pain 43:205-218(1990)). Partial ligation of the left sciatic nerve is performed underisoflurane/O₂ inhalation anaesthesia. Following induction of anesthesia,the left thigh of the rat is shaved and the sciatic nerve exposed athigh thigh level through a small incision and is carefully cleared ofsurrounding connective tissues at a site near the trocanther just distalto the point at which the posterior biceps semitendinosus nerve branchesoff of the common sciatic nerve. A 7-0 silk suture is inserted into thenerve with a ⅜ curved, reversed-cutting mini-needle and tightly ligatedso that the dorsal ⅓ to ½ of the nerve thickness is held within theligature. The wound is closed with a single muscle suture (4-0 nylon(Vicryl)) and vetbond tissue glue. Following surgery, the wound area isdusted with antibiotic powder. Sham-treated rats undergo an identicalsurgical procedure except that the sciatic nerve is not manipulated.Following surgery, animals are weighed and placed on a warm pad untilthey recover from anesthesia. Animals are then returned to their homecages until behavioral testing begins. The animal is assessed forresponse to noxious mechanical stimuli by determining PWT, as describedbelow, prior to surgery (baseline), then immediately prior to and 1, 3,and 5 hours after drug administration for rear paw of the animal.Percentage reversal of neuropathic hyperalgesia is defined as:

${\% \mspace{14mu} {Reversal}} = {\frac{\left\lbrack {\left( {{post}\mspace{14mu} {administration}\mspace{14mu} P\; W\; T} \right) - \left( {{pre}\text{-}{administration}\mspace{14mu} P\; W\; T} \right)} \right\rbrack}{\left\lbrack {\left( {{baseline}\mspace{14mu} P\; W\; T} \right) - \left( {{pre}\text{-}{administration}\mspace{14mu} P\; W\; T} \right)} \right\rbrack} \times 100}$

In the Chung model, the spinal nerve ligation model of neuropathic painis used to produce mechanical hyperalgesia, thermal hyperalgesia andtactile allodynia in rats. Surgery is performed under isoflurane/O₂inhalation anaesthesia. Following induction of anaesthesia, a 3 cmincision is made and the left paraspinal muscles are separated from thespinous process at the L₄-S₂ levels. The L₆ transverse process iscarefully removed with a pair of small rongeurs to identify visually theL₄-L₆ spinal nerves. The left L₅ (or L₅ and L₆) spinal nerve(s) isisolated and tightly ligated with silk thread. A complete hemostasis isconfirmed and the wound is sutured using non-absorbable sutures, such asnylon sutures or stainless steel staples. Sham-treated rats undergo anidentical surgical procedure except that the spinal nerve(s) is notmanipulated. Following surgery animals are weighed, administered asubcutaneous (s.c.) injection of saline or ringers lactate, the woundarea is dusted with antibiotic powder and they are kept on a warm paduntil they recover from the anesthesia. Animals are then returned totheir home cages until behavioral testing begins. The animals areassessed for response to noxious mechanical stimuli by determining PWT,as described below, prior to surgery (baseline), then immediately priorto and 1, 3, and 5 hours after being administered a Phenylene Compoundfor the left rear paw of the animal. The animal can also be assessed forresponse to noxious thermal stimuli or for tactile allodynia, asdescribed below. The Chung model for neuropathic pain is described in S.H. Kim, “An Experimental Model for Peripheral Neuropathy Produced bySegmental Spinal Nerve Ligation in the Rat,” Pain 50(3):355-363 (1992).

Response to Mechanical Stimuli as an Assessment of MechanicalHyperalgesia: The paw pressure assay can be used to assess mechanicalhyperalgesia. For this assay, hind paw withdrawal thresholds (PWT) to anoxious mechanical stimulus are determined using an analgesymeter (Model7200, commercially available from Ugo Basile of Italy) as described inC. Stein, “Unilateral Inflammation of the Hindpaw in Rats as a Model ofProlonged Noxious Stimulation: Alterations in Behavior and NociceptiveThresholds,” Pharmacol. Biochem. and Behavior 31:451-455 (1988). Themaximum weight that can be applied to the hind paw is set at 250 g andthe end point is taken as complete withdrawal of the paw. PWT isdetermined once for each rat at each time point and only the affected(ipsilateral) paw is tested.

Response to Thermal Stimuli as an Assessment of Thermal Hyperalgesia:The plantar test can be used to assess thermal hyperalgesia. For thistest, hind paw withdrawal latencies to a noxious thermal stimulus aredetermined using a plantar test apparatus (commercially available fromUgo Basile of Italy) following the technique described by K. Hargreaveset al., “A New and Sensitive Method for Measuring Thermal Nociception inCutaneous Hyperalgesia,” Pain 32(1):77-88 (1988). The maximum exposuretime is set at 32 seconds to avoid tissue damage and any directed pawwithdrawal from the heat source is taken as the end point. Threelatencies are determined at each time point and averaged. Only theaffected (ipsilateral) paw is tested.

Assessment of Tactile Allodynia: To assess tactile allodynia, rats areplaced in clear, plexiglass compartments with a wire mesh floor andallowed to habituate for a period of at least 15 minutes. Afterhabituation, a series of von Frey monofilaments are presented to theplantar surface of the left (operated) foot of each rat. The series ofvon Frey monofilaments consists of six monofilaments of increasingdiameter, with the smallest diameter fiber presented first. Five trialsare conducted with each filament with each trial separated byapproximately 2 minutes. Each presentation lasts for a period of 4-8seconds or until a nociceptive withdrawal behavior is observed.Flinching, paw withdrawal or licking of the paw are considerednociceptive behavioral responses.

5.8 Example 8 In Vivo Assays for Prevention or Treatment of Anxiety

The elevated plus maze test or the shock-probe burying test can be usedto assess the anxiolytic activity of Phenylene Compounds in rats ormice.

The Elevated Plus Maze Test: The elevated plus maze consists of aplatform with 4 arms, two open and two closed (50×10×50 cm enclosed withan open roof). Rats (or mice) are placed in the center of the platform,at the crossroad of the 4 arms, facing one of the closed arms. Timespent in the open arms vs the closed arms and number of open arm entriesduring the testing period are recorded. This test is conducted prior todrug administration and again after drug administration. Test resultsare expressed as the mean time spent in open arms and the mean number ofentries into open arms. Known anxiolytic drugs increase both the timespent in open arms and number of open arm entries. The elevated plusmaze test is described in D. Treit, “Animal Models for the Study ofAnti-anxiety Agents: A Review,” Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews9(2):203-222 (1985).

The Shock-Probe Burying Test: For the shock-probe burying test thetesting apparatus consists of a plexiglass box measuring 40×30×40 cm,evenly covered with approximately 5 cm of bedding material (odorabsorbent kitty litter) with a small hole in one end through which ashock probe (6.5 cm long and 0.5 cm in diameter) is inserted. Theplexiglass shock probe is helically wrapped with two copper wiresthrough which an electric current is administered. The current is set at2 mA. Rats are habituated to the testing apparatus for 30 min on 4consecutive days without the shock probe in the box. On test day, ratsare placed in one corner of the test chamber following drugadministration. The probe is not electrified until the rat touches itwith its snout or fore paws, at which point the rat receives a brief 2mA shock. The 15 min testing period begins once the rat receives itsfirst shock and the probe remains electrified for the remainder of thetesting period. The shock elicits burying behavior by the rat. Followingthe first shock, the duration of time the rat spends spraying beddingmaterial toward or over the probe with its snout or fore paws (buryingbehavior) is measured as well as the number of contact-induced shocksthe rat receives from the probe. Known anxiolytic drugs reduce theamount of burying behavior. In addition, an index of the rat'sreactivity to each shock is scored on a 4 point scale. The total timespent immobile during the 15 min testing period is used as an index ofgeneral activity. The shock-probe burying test is described in D. Treit,1985, supra.

5.9 Example 9 In Vivo Assays for Prevention or Treatment of an AddictiveDisorder

The conditioned place preference test or drug self-administration testcan be used to assess the ability of Phenylene Compounds to attenuatethe rewarding properties of known drugs of abuse.

The Conditioned Place Preference Test: The apparatus for the conditionedplace preference test consists of two large compartments (45×45×30 cm)made of wood with a plexiglass front wall. These two large compartmentsare distinctly different. Doors at the back of each large compartmentlead to a smaller box (36×18×20 cm) made of wood, painted grey, with aceiling of wire mesh. The two large compartments differ in terms ofshading (white vs black), level of illumination (the plexiglass door ofthe white compartment is covered with aluminum foil except for a windowof 7×7 cm), texture (the white compartment has a 3 cm thick floor board(40×40 cm) with nine equally spaced 5 cm diameter holes and the blackhas a wire mesh floor), and olfactory cues (saline in the whitecompartment and 1 mL of 10% acetic acid in the black compartment). Onhabituation and testing days, the doors to the small box remain open,giving the rat free access to both large compartments.

The first session that a rat is placed in the apparatus is a habituationsession and entrances to the smaller grey compartment remain open givingthe rat free access to both large compartments. During habituation, ratsgenerally show no preference for either compartment. Followinghabituation, rats are given 6 conditioning sessions. Rats are dividedinto 4 groups: carrier pre-treatment+carrier (control group), PhenyleneCompound pre-treatment+carrier, carrier pre-treatment+morphine,Phenylene Compound pre-treatment+morphine. During each conditioningsession the rat is injected with one of the drug combinations andconfined to one compartment for 30 min. On the following day, the ratreceives a carrier+carrier treatment and is confined to the other largecompartment. Each rat receives three conditioning sessions consisting of3 drug combination-compartment and 3 carrier-compartment pairings. Theorder of injections and the drug/compartment pairings arecounterbalanced within groups. On the test day, rats are injected priorto testing (30 min to 1 hour) with either morphine or carrier and therat is placed in the apparatus, the doors to the grey compartment remainopen and the rat is allowed to explore the entire apparatus for 20 min.The time spent in each compartment is recorded. Known drugs of abuseincrease the time spent in the drug-paired compartment during thetesting session. If the Phenylene Compound blocks or reduces theacquisition of morphine conditioned place preference (reward), therewill be no difference or less of a difference in time spent in each sidein rats pre-treated with a Phenylene Compound and the group will not bedifferent from the group of rats that was given carrier+carrier in bothcompartments. Data will be analyzed as time spent in each compartment(drug combination-paired vs carrier-paired). Generally, the experimentis repeated with a minimum of 3 doses of a Phenylene Compound.

The Drug Self-Administration Test: The apparatus for the drugself-administration test is a standard commercially available operantconditioning chamber. Before drug trials begin rats are trained to pressa lever for a food reward. After stable lever pressing behavior isacquired, rats are tested for acquisition of lever pressing for drugreward. Rats are implanted with chronically indwelling jugular cathetersfor i.v. administration of compounds and are allowed to recover for 7days before training begins. Experimental sessions are conducted dailyfor 5 days in 3 hour sessions. Rats are trained to self-administer aknown drug of abuse, such as morphine. Rats are then presented with twolevers, an “active” lever and an “inactive” lever. Pressing of theactive lever results in drug infusion on a fixed ratio 1 (FR1) schedule(i.e., one lever press gives an infusion) followed by a 20 second timeout period (signaled by illumination of a light above the levers).Pressing of the inactive lever results in infusion of excipient.Training continues until the total number of morphine infusionsstabilizes to within ±10% per session. Trained rats are then used toevaluate the effect of Phenylene Compounds pre-treatment on drugself-administration. On test day, rats are pre-treated with a PhenyleneCompound or excipient and then are allowed to self-administer drug asusual. If the Phenylene Compound blocks or reduces the rewarding effectsof morphine, rats pre-treated with the Phenylene Compound will show alower rate of responding compared to their previous rate of respondingand compared to excipient pre-treated rats. Data are analyzed as thechange in number of drug infusions per testing session (number ofinfusions during test session−number of infusions during trainingsession).

5.10 Example 10 Functional Assay for Characterizing mGluR1 AntagonisticProperties

Functional assays for the characterization of mGluR 1 antagonisticproperties are known in the art. For example, the following procedurecan be used.

A CHO-rat mGluR1 cell line is generated using cDNA encoding rat mGluR1receptor (M. Masu and S. Nakanishi, Nature 349: 760-765 (1991)). ThecDNA encoding rat mGluR1 receptor can be obtained from, e.g., Prof. S.Nakanishi (Kyoto, Japan).

40,000 CHO-rat mGluR1 cells/well are plated into a Costar 3409, black,clear bottom, 96 well, tissue culture treated plate (commerciallyavailable from Fisher Scientific of Chicago, Ill.) and are incubated inDulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (DMEM, pH 7.4) supplemented withglutamine, 10% FBS, 1% Pen/Strep, and 500 μg/mL Geneticin for about 12h. The CHO-rat mGluR1 cells are then washed and treated with Optimemmedium (commercially available from Invitrogen, Carlsbad, Calif.) andincubated for a time period ranging from 1 to 4 hours prior to loadingthe cells with the dye Fluo-4. After incubation, the cell plates arewashed with loading buffer (127 mM NaCl, 5 mM KCl, 2 mM MgCl₂, 700 μM,NaH₂PO₄, 2 mM CaCl₂, 5 mMNaHCO₃, 8 mM HEPES, and 10 mM glucose, pH 7.4)and incubated with 3 μM Fluo-4 in 0.1 mL loading buffer for 90 min. Thecells are then washed twice with 0.2 mL loading buffer, resuspended in0.1 mL of loading buffer, and transferred to a FLIPR for measurement ofcalcium mobilization flux in the presence of glutamate and in thepresence or absence of a Phenylene Compound.

To measure calcium mobilization flux, fluorescence is monitored forabout 15 s to establish a baseline and DMSO solutions containing variousconcentrations of a Phenylene Compound ranging from about 50 μM to about0.8 nM diluted in loading buffer (0.05 mL of a 4× dilution) are added tothe cell plate and fluorescence is monitored for about 2 min. 0.05 mL ofa 4× Glutamate solution (agonist) is then added to each well to providea final glutamate concentration in each well of 10 μM and fluorescenceis monitored for about 1 additional min. The final DMSO concentration inthe assay is 1%. In each experiment fluorescence is monitored as afunction of time and the data is analyzed using a non-linear regressionto determine the IC₅₀ value. In each experiment each data point isdetermined twice.

Binding of Compound E35 to VR1 Assay Protocol

Human VR1 Cloning: Human spinal cord RNA (commercially available fromClontech, Palo Alto, Calif.) was used. Reverse transcription wasconducted on 1.0 μg total RNA using Thermoscript Reverse Transcriptase(commercially available from Invitrogen) and oligo dT primers asdetailed in its product description. Reverse transcription reactionswere incubated at 55° C. for 1 h, heat-inactivated at 85° C. for 5 min,and RNase H-treated at 37° C. for 20 min.

Human VR1 cDNA sequence was obtained by comparison of the human genomicsequence, prior to annotation, to the published rat sequence. Intronsequences were removed and flanking exonic sequences were joined togenerate the hypothetical human cDNA. Primers flanking the coding regionof human VR1 were designed as follows: forward primer,GAAGATCTTCGCTGGTTGCACACTGGGCCACA; and reverse primer,GAAGATCTTCGGGGACAGTGACGGTTGGATGT.

PCR of VR1 was performed on one tenth of the Reverse transcriptionreaction mixture using Expand Long Template Polymerase and Expand Buffer2 in a final volume of 50 μL according to the manufacturer'sinstructions (Roche Applied Sciences, Indianapolis, Ind.). Afterdenaturation at 94° C. for 2 min, PCR amplification was performed for 25cycles at 94° C. for 15 sec, 58° C. for 30 sec, and 68° C. for 3 minfollowed by a final incubation at 72° C. for 7 min to complete theamplification. A PCR product of ˜2.8 kb was gel-isolated using a 1.0%agarose, Tris-Acetate gel containing 1.6 μg/mL of crystal violet andpurified with a S.N.A.P. UV-Free Gel Purification Kit (commerciallyavailable from Invitrogen). The VR1 PCR product was cloned into thepIND/V5-His-TOPO vector (commercially available from Invitrogen)according to the manufacturer's instructions. DNA preparations,restriction enzyme digestions, and preliminary DNA sequencing wereperformed according to standard protocols. Full-length sequencingconfirmed the identity of the human VR1.

Generation of Inducible Cell Lines: Unless noted otherwise, cell culturereagents were purchased from Life Technologies of Rockville, Md. HEK293-EcR cells expressing the ecdysone receptor (commercially availablefrom Invitrogen) were cultured in Growth Medium (Dulbecco's ModifiedEagles Medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum (commercially availablefrom HYCLONE, Logan, Utah), 1× penicillin/streptomycin, 1× glutamine, 1mM sodium pyruvate and 400 μg/mL Zeocin (commercially available fromInvitrogen)). The VR1-pIND constructs were transfected into theHEK293-EcR cell line using Fugene transfection reagent (commerciallyavailable from Roche Applied Sciences, Basel, Switzerland). After 48 h,cells were transferred to Selection Medium (Growth Medium containing 300μg/mL G418 (commercially available from Invitrogen)). Approximately 3weeks later, individual Zeocin/G418 resistant colonies were isolated andexpanded. To identify functional clones, multiple colonies were platedinto 96-well plates and expression was induced for 48 h using SelectionMedium supplemented with 5 μM ponasterone A (“PonA”) (commerciallyavailable from Invitrogen). On the day of assay, cells were loaded withFluo-4 (a calcium-sensitive dye that is commercially available fromMolecular Probes) and CAP-mediated calcium influx was measured using aFLIPR as described below. Functional clones were re-assayed, expanded,and cryopreserved.

pH-Based Assay: Two days prior to performing this assay, cells wereseeded on poly-D-lysine-coated 96-well clear-bottom black plates(commercially available from Becton-Dickinson) at 75,000 cells/well ingrowth media containing 5 μM PonA to induce expression. On the day ofthe assay, the plates were washed with 0.2 mL 1× Hank's Balanced SaltSolution (commercially available from Life Technologies) containing 1.6mM CaCl₂ and 20 mM HEPES, pH 7.4 (“wash buffer”), and loaded using 0.1mL of wash buffer containing Fluo-4 (3 μM final concentration,commercially available from Molecular Probes). After 1 h, the cells werewashed twice with 0.2 mL wash buffer and resuspended in 0.05 mL 1×Hank's Balanced Salt Solution containing 3.5 mM CaCl₂ and 10 mM Citrate,pH 7.4 (“assay buffer”). Plates were then transferred to a FLIPR forassay. Compound E35 was diluted in assay buffer, and 50 mL of theresultant solution were added to the cell plates and the solutionmonitored for two minutes. The final concentration of Compound E35ranged from about 50 μM to about 3 μM. Agonist buffer (wash buffertitrated with 1N HCl to provide a solution having a pH of 5.5 when mixed1:1 with assay buffer) (0.1 mL) was then added to each well, and theplates were incubated for 1 additional minute. Data were collected overthe entire time course and analyzed using Excel and Graph Pad Prism.Compound E35 when assayed according to this protocol had an IC₅₀ of11.2±5.5 nM (n=5).

Capsaicin-Based Assay: Two days prior to performing this assay, cellswere seeded in poly-D-lysine-coated 96-well clear-bottom black plates(50,000 cells/well) in growth media containing 5 μM PonA to induceexpression. On the day of the assay, the plates were washed with 0.2 mL1× Hank's Balanced Salt Solution containing 1 mM CaCl₂ and 20 mM HEPES,pH 7.4, and cells were loaded using 0.1 mL of wash buffer containingFluo-4 (3 μM final). After one hour, the cells were washed twice with0.2 mL of wash buffer and resuspended in 0.1 mL of wash buffer. Theplates were transferred to a FLIPR for assay. 50 μL of Compound E35diluted with assay buffer were added to the cell plates and incubatedfor 2 min. The final concentration of Compound E35 ranged from about 50μM to about 3 μM. Human VR1 was activated by the addition of 50 μL ofcapsaicin (400 nM), and the plates were incubated for an additional 3min. Data were collected over the entire time course and analyzed usingExcel and GraphPad Prism. Compound E35 when assayed according to thisprotocol had an IC₅₀ of 128.1±26 nM (n=4).

The results of the pH-based assay and the capsaicin-based assaydemonstrate that Compound E35, an illustrative Phenylene Compound, bindsto and modulates the activity of human VR1 and accordingly is useful fortreating or preventing pain, UI, an ulcer, IBD or IBS in an animal.
